Answer:

being the child of an alcoholic.

Step-by-step explanation:

Children of alcoholic parents are more likely to develop the same problem. The development of alcoholism among individuals with a family history of this problem is four to eight times more common than among individuals without this family record. This is probably because children of alcoholic parents have easy access to alcoholic beverages, and although they have traumatizing memories about their parents, they use alcoholism as a way to escape their problems.
